  1. Betts with a real opportunity to prove he is not Booger Betts Well , call me Booger
  2. It's a memory device for O'Brien. Mostly his family members doing it
  3. I guess Sale's last 2 starts at least evens out some of the discussion on Leon's effect on Sale's pitching.
  4. Marco read Eduardo's book on hitting theory, written from the bats POV, " Swing me once shame on me, swing me twice shame on you"
  5. 2 HR's in his last 111 AB's. If he is there for a power bat, it's not happening. If and when Moreland comes back, and Holt can play, wonder what will give with Chavis. He does keep his BA and OPS in Mookie 2019 range
  6. A free run, now a bomb from Chavis would even this up
  7. No way Chavis misses #4. Gads. And #5 was exactly the same. Hit the damn ball, MC
  8. But Alex detailed exactly what is wrong with this season compared to 2018. Extremely sharp analysis and unlocks the secret to renewed success, once we lose the first game of the schedules second half
  9. Devers should not have gone to first. Devers throw pulled Chavis away in the wrong direction while Chavis tried to hold the bag. I don't think any quick throw home would have gotten the out.
  10. First you would have to find a GM who loves those two the way Sox fans do, and then he would have to have 4-5 high potential prospects, but overall, let's do it DD
  11. I'm on the page that says Chris Sale did not make a huge contribution to the eventual playoff and WS wins. He also is no ACE this year and today's game is yet another example. No matter the cause or reasoning, you need to realize, this guys abilities are not in focus, and he keeps digging holes to climb out of.
  12. OB says Vazquez is one tough out. Chavis is not
  13. Very nice Vaz, and amazed we got two runs on that hit
  14. That was one to go on, Rafi. But no way to know when the defense will screw up the throw in.
  15. Seriously ??? I never take anything said on a GT too seriously. The analytical threads like WTF Cora are the real meat of the site. Enjoy your stuff as always
  16. Playing with a wet ball could get someone killed. I think X missed a lot of work in 2017 with a damaged hand
  17. SS, I honestly do not think Xander imbibes prior to the game, but will concede that in baseball, all things are possible. I think X mat be one of the good guys
  18. On the wet infield (grass and dirt), the ball did not bounce in its typical way, leaving X to be grasping at air.
  19. Crappy weather, crappy baseball. Welcome to NE
  20. This rule (actually 20 pitches) applies to relievers.
  21. And exactly WTF did Sale have to do with winning the playoffs and WS ? A very nice and rewarding K on Manny Machado was much appreciated but Sale was not a key to the World Series win.
  22. A 50% strikeout artist. he started the 6 weeks somewhere near .290+. Now on his way to the .250's. if this guy is your answer, try a new question.
  23. very good article on The Athletic (subscription ) about an aerodynamic study on the ball itself. More rebound , more smooth skin, lower seams, will fly 20' further on average hit this year. The average HR total by field position will be 20+ HR's this year for all positions. Jung has been correct all year based on the study about the rocketball.
